How to earn a Reward for Merit

Your chance of getting a Reward for Merit is defined by your personal effectiveness in battle, no matter whether it was a winning or losing fight. The more you battle, the chance of getting the Reward increases.

However, if you break the game rules (for example, desert from a battle or kill your teammates) the probability of receiving a Reward for Merit will not increase.

You can find the information on your Reward for Merit in your Garage: in the Notification Center, go to the Personal Notifications tab. Also, this information is displayed after each battle in the Battle Results window.

There is a special indicator, a padlock, that displays your current chance of getting a Reward for Merit:

The chance is minimal. You have probably not fought any battles yet, or you have just received the previous Reward.

You are part-way to getting a Reward.

The chance is very high. You may receive the Reward right after the next battle.
